In plastic analysis, the shape factor for a circular section is 1.7.

This means that the circular section can resist 70% more moments in plastic design than in elastic design.

I section - 1.15.
T section - 1.74.
Thin rectangular sec. - 1.2,
Rectangular - 1.5.

Diamond = 2.

Round = 1.7.

Circular = 1.697.

Rectangle = 1.5.

Tube = 1.27.

I-section = 1.14.

Only for circular. Please mention other too.

zp = A/2*(y1 +y2)y1 = 2d/3pi = y2 pi = 3.14

zy = (pi*d^3)/32 S.F = 1.7.

Shape Factor = Plastic Section Modulus/Elastic Section Modulus.

Shape Factor = Zp/Zy.
